This is the second surgical procedure I have had with Dr. Wassermann and his staff of amazing nurses and assistants. I had a consultation to discuss my concerns and Dr. made his recommendations. I tailored his suggestions to my own comfort level and schedule my chin lipo procedure for less than 8 weeks later! On surgery day I showed up early in the morning and had the full workup with his staff before he spent some time with me to make his marks. Before I knew it I was waking
I've always struggled with my weight but after a few very hard years I had put on more weight than ever, reaching ~285lbs. With lots of therapy to get the emotional bingeing under control and a lot of physical work, I managed to drop down to 185lbs. Unfortunately the amount of weight gained and then lost had forever changed my body and at only 26 years old I found myself with a sad saggy tummy, and stretch breasts that nearly hit my waist. Nothing like the college body I had remembered

Unsure if I Look Right or Not
hello, I am a week post op tomorrow on the 8th. I got Abdominoplasty, lipo on the back, and fat transfer to my butt and hips. I know I'm expected to still have swelling but I feel like one side isnt right. I was placed in a Garment that was too small and I think it made my incisions worse. Can someone please tell me im dreaming and not botched. That it takes time for the fat to fall into place like the doc says?

Best surgery experience ever! (Breast reduction and tummy tuck)
I went to Dr. Wasserman for a consult in October 2017 for a breast reduction and an anterior torsoplasty. I researched my options and chose him because he does more than an average tummy tuck. I really did not like the ptosis and pouch overlap I’ve had all my life, even when I was smaller. At the consultation, he was very knowledgeable and professional and I felt very comfortable. He advised me to lose 30 pounds because my BMI was 38. I scheduled my surgery for December 14 and
Terrific doctor thrilled with results - Columbia, SC
Terrific procedure, had mastopexy w implants and a tummy tuck ie mommy makover. I went to several consukts before Dr Wasermann and he was the only one i felt comfortable with. He and his staff have been amazing and three weeks post op I can already see the results are meeting my expectations!
Never worked to lose eight after children, finally got motivated and been working out doing Crossfit. Have lost weight much of it from chest- leaving them saggy and deflated. Been researching since January 2016- and finally did it August 30. Got 397cc through areoles so as to avoid anchor scar. Finally! Updated on 5 Sep 2016: At times I feel like they are too big! And other times too small. I also don't know how healthy it is for me only his board- looking at everyone else's
I worked hard 4 years ago to lose 140 pounds, but I was still unhappy with my body due to the excess skin hanging around my belly and my breast looked like pancakes that hung to the floor. After consulting with 3 physicians I decided Dr. Wasserman was the most qualified for the job. I am 13 days post op and am very pleased with the results! My stomach actually has shape again and my breasts no longer sag to the floor! I will post pictures soon , as I havent taken any post ops

58 Years Old, a Much Needed Breast Reduction. - Columbia, SC
I had a breast reduction many years ago with another plastic surgeon, but I was never satisfied with the results. Years ago I had a tummy tuck by Dr. Wasserman and I was 100% satisfied. For years I've suffered with neck, shoulder and upper back pain largely due to the size of my breast. Dr Wasserman did an excellent job and thanks to him I not only have beautiful breast but, I don't have any more pain. I have recommended Dr Wasserman to all of my friends and family. The

58 Years Old and Loving my Results!! - Columbia, SC
Being an attractive 58 year old woman I had a desire to love not only my spirit but also my physical body again. I had lost weight and the excess skin was very unattractive in my midsection. After researching a couple of hundred websites all over the world, I found Dr. Wasserman was in the city where I live.
